Cuniculitremaceae

provided by wikipedia EN

The Cuniculitremaceae are a family of fungi in the order Tremellales. There are three genera in the family.[1] Sterigmatosporidium polymorphum parasitizes other fungi growing in insect galleries in wood. It does not produce basidiocarps (fruit bodies), but has septate basidia similar to those found in the genus Tremella.[2] Most species are known only from their yeast states.
